Peter Jennings Reporting: Breakdown - America's Health Insurance Crisis
Thursday, December 15, 2005
10 pm EST on ABC

Today in the United States there are an estimated 46 million people without health insurance. That's nearly one in six - and the numbers continue to grow. In the last documentary reported before his death, Peter Jennings reveals how the breakdown of the country's health insurance system threatens almost every American and all areas of American life: family, business and community. Who's to blame? It's not as simple as you may think.

"Peter Jennings Reporting: Breakdown - America's Health Insurance Crisis" airs as a special edition of "Primetime," THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network, with a special introduction by ABC News anchor Charles Gibson.

"Over the course of Peter's long career at ABC News, he made more than 60 primetime documentaries, many of them covering public health issues. He had planned for this broadcast to be the first of a series confronting the problems in the American healthcare system -- a subject he believed was critical to all Americans," said Tom Yellin, executive producer of "Peter Jennings Reporting."

Yellin continued: "Peter conducted most of the interviews for 'Breakdown' in the months before he learned he had lung cancer; the broadcast was written and edited while he underwent treatment. Peter's voice was not strong enough to narrate the program but, as you will see, it is still very much 'Peter Jennings Reporting.'"

"Peter Jennings Reporting: Breakdown -- America's Health Insurance Crisis" is produced by Keith Summa. Tom Yellin is the executive producer of "Peter Jennings Reporting."
